The exams have come to an end, and the remaining examiners who survived are coming out of the dome, there are only four survivors including the boy who got saved by katsuragi.
"Ah I'm exhausted" says taiyou, he turns to his right and sees katsuragi.
"Oiii, oiiii, katsuragi" yells taiyou as he smiles and runs over to meet his friend. He puts his arm around katsuragi's shoulder as he smiles
"Hee, hee, so you survived" says taiyou mockingly
"I see you also did" replies katsuragi
"Why not? To be honest I was expecting the exams to be tougher, I even fought a higher ranked vampire although he didn't seem that strong"
"I also fought one, he almost killed me I was so scared I had to run for my life"
"Liar"
"SURVIVORS PLEASE PROCEED TO THE BUILDING OPPOSITE THE DOME"
Taiyou and katsuragi make their way into the building, it's strange building the only source of light is a huge chandelier dangling above a center table which is the only thing in the room , besides taiyou and katsuragi is the last survivor of the exam, a young boy around the age of 17, about 6"1, his hair is long around shoulder length and as white as snow, his expression is cold and calm, he pockets and looks straight ahead.
"Who's that white haired dude?" Whispers taiyou to katsuragi
"I have no idea, but he doesn't look like he had a hard time at all, he doesn't have a scratch on him"
"Congratulations on surviving contestants"
Says a man wearing an oni mask, he steps into the light from the shadows
"The three of you are the only remaining survivors, the rest of them are dead"
"So they all died" says taiyou to himself as he wears a very sad look on his face,
"Congratulations on surviving, the three of you are now officially vampire hunters, however the three of you shall not be joining any vampire hunting company the three of you shall be made a special op unit"
"Special unit?" Asks taiyou
"Yes, unlike the vampire hunting companies who have to deal with paper work, finance and maintaining their status in the world of vampire hunters while hunting vampires, your sole task and only purpose is to hunt vampires and engage in mortal combat with them then report any valuable intel you acquired"
"Isn't this a bit too dangerous for beginners?" Asks taiyou
"This is the wish of the grand master, although it will be dangerous and you may all die I believe you have what it takes, I wish you luck in your lives as vampire hunters,all three of you will be summoned in a month and you will receive your first mission, you may now take your leave" says the man as he disappears into the shadows once more. Taiyou and katsuragi leave the building to meet squad 8.
Meanwhile in a dark large room sits a man behind a desk, who is completely covered by the dark shadows and you can only make a silhouette of an old man, A man knocks and enters the room.
"Yo old man" says the man who entered the room
"Ah kento still a brat I see, what brings you here" says the old man
"You know quit well why I'm here"
"Is it about the red haired boy?"
"Why did you put him in the special ops"
"Well I'm sure you have noticed kento that boy is not normal, I'm sure you know by now that he is the descendant of that man, he is the last person on this planet who carries the blood of that man, his divine energy is black, he carries the will of darkness in him "
"So?"
"You know very much that if that's the case he is the star of hope, he is the one who will help us eradicate vampires from the face of this earth, he won't not die, he will survive no matter what, and besides no need to be worried there is a survivor of the katsuragi clan there with him who posses immense potential and there is also an white haired boy who's origins are still unknown but is strong and shows great promise I'm sure three of them will be alright, no infect I'm sure they will surpass our expectations"
"I see, anyway take kimiko along with them since she is someone who can heal them"
"Understood"
"Ah see you later old man, hope you die soon" says kento as he exits the room.
"Hm Taiyou, I have great expectations for you" cackles the old man
Taiyou and katsuragi meet up with sayuri and kimiko
"That was an awesome performance both of you" shouts kimiko as she hugs them both
"You did well" says sayuri, she notices taiyou isn't wearing a grim expression on his face
"Everything ok taiyou?"
"Yea, it's just all those people who died during this qualification exams, wasn't there another way to hold the exam?"
"They knew what they were in for when they agreed to take the exams"
"I know but still, most of them were still young about our age, they probably had families, they had a life of their own" Taiyou says as he clenches his fist to the extent it starts bleeding
"You have to let go of things like this taiyou, when you start hunting down vampires you will get used to people dying, as you can't save everyone"
"So why am I even doing this if I can't even save everyone?"
Everyone is quiet for a while, there is a huge elephant in the room and katsuragi notices how sad taiyou is
"Yo taiyou wanna go get some grub?"asks katsuragi
"Sure"
They both go to get some food
"Those two have exceptional talent, in only a matter of weeks they have become this strong, it took me and kimiko 5 months to get prepared for this exams and we still almost died, meanwhile they both passed with ease. However taiyou is to selfless, he can kill vampires without feeling a thing meanwhile when it comes to humans he cares so much and wants to protect everyone, he may not live long if he continues with that mentality. But that black divine energy he possesses raises a lot of questions".
